Haute Time’s watch of the day, Breguet Marine Tourbillon Ref. 5839.  It is a recreation from the Breguet Marine Tourbillon Ref. 5837 but only with encrusted diamonds in it.  The watch is 43mm wide, built with 18k white gold case, and has around 11.77 carats of stones.  The Breguet caliber 554.4 manually-wounded movements and 50 hours of power reserve with special feature that include a silicium balance spring and escapement wheel makes this watch beautiful, but also a very powerful piece.
